This is where you may start looking for useful information on your endeavours to sail on the high seas. You never know what kind of gold mine you’ll uncover!
On your quest, you will come across sites, apps, tools and a variety of other excellent resources to become the most dreadful, most magnificent pirate of the sea. Now pick your destination!
My Qbittorrent refuses to seed for some reason, I have really good internet speed and wanna help with seeding but it just constantly says 0 upload even though the limiter is set to infinite.
Not sure where to ask this, so I’ll ask here. Linking to pirate sites (not content) is okay here as I understand it. However my account is with Lemmy.world, which in its “rules” specifically states “Protect our community from harassment, malicious or illegal content”. Would I technically be at the whim of Lemmy.world by linking to pirate sites, or do I have some leeway here?
I think when they say ‘illegal content’ they mean, like, drugs and terrorism. Piracy probably ranks pretty low on the list.
Now yes the definition of piracy technically fits in the definition of ‘illegal content’, but just because two definitions intersect doesn’t mean you will get the logical consequences. The word of the rules is one thing, the rules in practice is another, so i think you can get away with a lot regardless of instance.
Besides, do the rules apply to the instance where you have your account, or to the instance where you’re posting/commenting? I genuinely don’t know

That is essentially what I was asking. It kind of seems like it’s both, but I’m no fediverse expert.
I guess it really just depends how much of a stickler the lemmy.world mods are, and/or if they have any way of finding out I’m linking to stuff like that.
This kind of Piracy (not to be confused with the whole ship plundering one) is not a crime in most of the World, rather it’s a Civil Law affair, so roughly in the same basket as breach-of-contract.
I suspect the whole “illegal content” stuff is about things like child porn or bomb making instructions, not breach of copyright.
Common law legislations also have piracy laws? I would rather say it’s more of a western kind of affair, since a lot of countries in the east + africa (especially underdeveloped or that only recently developed) have yet to sign international treaties on enforcing piracy law.
Having the law is one thing, but of course most countries that aren’t on western europe or North America barely enforce piracy laws. (For example look at the entirety of south america, where official huge bus companies will just play pirated movies on the screens)

Hi :)
Nice one!
Thank you for setting up this new ship ✌️
“What’s a pirate’s favorite letter?”
“r/”
“Aye, he liked the r/, but it’s the c/ that he really loves.”
Hey, quick question for anyone who can help me.
My Qbittorrent refuses to seed for some reason, I have really good internet speed and wanna help with seeding but it just constantly says 0 upload even though the limiter is set to infinite.
Any solutions?
Any chance your torrent just has very few seeds?

There’s links to the restricted Piracy subreddit now which need to be replaced i think ? Like this one in the FAQ : https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/n62da6/how_do_you_guys_know_if_a_virus_warning_is_a/gx4whhz/
Updated :)

Let’s go Ship of Theseus this bitch. Big thanks to the mods for setting this up and also for closing the sub. 🫡
Megathread link not working for anyone else.
Currently, the .co domain is experiencing a DNS resolver issue (comes and goes). I tested it on Cloudflare, Quad9, and NextDNS, all with Firefox.
Edit: .co domains are all working again, but you can use .org as well.
